Gourmet burgers with quirky flavours
Fat Hippo on Bold Street is a Liverpool favourite for burgers, known for quirky flavours alongside the classics, with a covered, heated outdoor seating area and very tasty meat.
What to order
Signature burgers — the PB&J (peanut butter and bacon jam), Swiss Tony and Born Slippy (double beef, braised rib, jalapeños, chilli jam) — with loaded dirty fries and cheese balls.
Who it’s for
A good choice for a casual bite with friends, a family meal or a hearty burger fix.
Interior and atmosphere
Inside it’s warm and low-lit, with booth seating built for lingering and an industrial edge of bare brick and pipework overhead. The covered, heated seating out front works in any weather, and the mood stays firmly casual — trainers and mates rather than white tablecloths.

Had a wonderful time, as for the food, it was a little busy, but we came at 7pm on a Friday, so that goes without saying. The staff were attentive and friendly, they tried to sort out everything needed as quickly as poss…
An incredible find, we just dropped in and are very glad we did. I'm telling you, this is why we'll come back to Liverpool. Garlic butter mayo? A must. The Caesar Sando was just a dream, the staff extremely friendly, the…
A nice restaurant. The service is quick and the lunch deal quite attractive. The fries are good, but you can tell the burger bun isn't homemade, and the burger itself lacks sauce.
A wonderful lunch experience and my first visit to Fat Hippo. They accommodated us very well, since my partner had spinal surgery, and she was given a booth seat so she'd be especially comfortable. The food itself was ta…
